What’s up guys, uazap here. In this DIY video, I show you the easiest and cleanest way to replace your power steering fluid on the 8th gen Hilux (N80) — and honestly this will work on most cars too. The goal is simple: refresh the fluid without disconnecting any hoses in the engine bay. I walk you through the basic stuff you’ll need (ATF Dexron 2 or 3 / power steering fluid, a pump or syringe to siphon, bottle for waste fluid, funnel, shop towels, and gloves), then we do a repeatable flush method straight from the reservoir. I also explain when you should change your power steering fluid: normally around 80,000–100,000 km, or when the fluid gets dark, the steering feels heavy, or you start hearing noises. In my case, since I do off-roading/overlanding and I’m running oversized tires, I decided to do it earlier at 40,000 km just to be sure. The process is: jack the front wheels off the ground, siphon the reservoir, refill with fresh ATF (you’ll see it’s bright red), start the engine, then turn lock-to-lock a few times and repeat until the fluid coming back is already clear. I also share the other method using the return line if you want a more direct flush.
